Family Law

• Divorce
  There are times that people divorce because they simply grow apart no matter the age of the couple or how long they have been together. When people get married too young, they might find that life changes who they are and what they want out of life, causing them to grow apart from their spouse. When couples grow apart, most of the time they reach the mutual decision to divorce. Often, these couples can walk away from their marriage with an uncontested divorce, which makes it easier for both spouses. This may be a bit more difficult if there are children involved.
• Child Support
  Families come in all shapes and sizes these days. If you’re in the middle of redefining your definition of family, Leslie A. Williams can help. Whether it’s helping you and your former spouse put together a proposed parenting plan for a custody agreement or working out the details of child support, Leslie is an experienced family law attorney with a calm demeanor to help everyone involved stay focused on what’s most important: setting up the best arrangement for your children.
• Child Custody and Visitation
  Custody and visitation must address both physical custody, or the rights and responsibilities regarding the day-to-day care and activities of their children; and legal custody, or the legal rights and responsibilities associated with the child’s upbringing.
• Adoption
  Step-Parent Adoption is the legal procedure that allows a step-parent to become the natural parent of the adopted child or children for intents and purposes.
• Paternity
  Paternity testing can be used to protect your rights to access your kids or protect you from unfair child support claims against you.
• Premarital Agreement
  Family law cases can be very overwhelming and confusing for families to understand.  If you are looking for a Family Lawyer you are most likely facing family-related issues, including but not limited to divorce, child custody, support or domestic relations. Most family law practices focus on representing clients in a divorce and the issues related to divorce such as the division of marital property, child custody and support, and alimony. Family lawyers also draft prenuptial and postnuptial agreements and litigate related matters. Adoption and guardianship, juvenile delinquency, and child abuse and neglect are also areas of family law.
